See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Finally finished Medal Of Honor - Frontline. Totally guessed the actor playing the Colonel who does all the briefings. Helped that I actually did a show with him at old job (Morgan Sheppard).

So I get through the whole game, gold medals all around (finally), and realize that this game is too old to add points to my gamertag on Xbox live. D'oh! Oh well.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

[frowns at the test results, muttering to himself.]Is it the little pink plus sign or the little pink minus sign that's good? I can never remember. Oh, frak it...[grabs a "phone"] Good news, Admiral. I am completely (mostly) certain that the Chief is not at this precise moment a Cylon. Probably.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

Thank you, Doctor. In that case, I am completely (mostly) certain that I will:

Play an XO-1 on Chief Tyrol.

On COs from the Chief, he will be activating Weapons Control to fire at the basestar.

Since this is a die roll, SPs are in effect. Please post or send COs about interrupts. I have COs from Chief and Adama.

Starbuck's a toaster and President Ferret is out of cards, so it's really just Helo now.

SPs won't increase the damage of a shot on basestar, just increase the probability that damage happens, right?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

And it`d take 3 damages to destroy it regardless, right? Although we may be able to prevent it from spitting stuff out at us all the time.

Yes, it takes 3 damage to destroy a basestar.

ETA: Helo, are your COs still in effect?
